Gun Wisdom
The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory
in defense. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is
more important than either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is
supplemental.
As John Steinbeck once said:
1. Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to
fight, he'll just kill you.
2. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.
3. I carry a gun cause a cop is too heavy.
4. When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away.
5. A reporter did a human-interest piece on the Texas Rangers.
The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was carrying and
asked him 'Why do you carry a .45?' The Ranger responded, 'Because they
don't make a .46.'
6. An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous
regularity.
7. The old sheriff was attending an awards dinner when a lady
com mented on his wearing his sidearm. 'Sheriff, I see you have your
pistol. Are you expecting trouble?' 'No Ma'am. If I were expecting
trouble, I would have brought my rifle.'
8. Beware the man who only has one gun. HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO
USE IT!!!
But wait, there's more!
I was once asked by a lady visiting if I had a gun in the house.
I said I did. She said 'Well I certainly hope it isn't loaded!' To which
I said, Of course it is loaded, can't work without bullets!' She then
asked, 'Are you that afraid of some one evil coming into your house?' My
reply was, 'No not at all. I am not afraid of the house catching fire
either, but I have fire extinguishers around, and they are all loaded
too.' To which I'll add, having a gun in the house that isn't loaded is
like having a car in the garage without gas in the tank.
I'm a firm believer of the 2nd Amendment!
If you are too, please forward.

of him, but because he loves what is behind him." -G. K. Chesterton
